Dust of History Chapter 32:
"Fate? Hey..." The Pope narrowed his eyes, as if reminiscing about the unique mysterious charm, then he looked at the Marquis and said, "This is not the first time I have said these words I heard that someone mentioned it in front of me more than 20 years ago. That was the last pope, His Majesty Durken. Do you know him, Inham?"
The Marquis nodded: "Your Majesty Deken was not only the pope at the time, but also recognized as the most powerful person in the mainland. It's a pity that I was too young to see the figure of this legendary figure."
"Well, in terms of magic cultivation, His Majesty Deken's combination of white magic and fire magic is already one of the three major magicians in the mainland. Even if he doesn't count magic, his skills are still in the top ten of the mainland. Among the great masters, the identity of the most powerful man in the mainland is unquestionable. During his reign, I, Ronis, and Eschael were the three cardinals under him at that time, and the glory of Celeste It was also the time when it spread the most widely and flourished, and he deserved to be the most powerful person in the mainland. Inham, tell me, can such a person be said to be a person who has gathered strength."
"Of course." The Marquis nodded. Such a person can say whatever he is. In fact, in the minds of most people at that time, His Majesty the Pope was no longer a man, but a god. Even the Lord in heaven is not as radiant as His own Speaker on earth.
"He said this Archibald's prophecy in front of me at that time. He also said that he had seen fate, and fate was already in his hands. He wanted to step on this prophecy to overload history. Archibald, the most powerful magician ever, pull up the black star that no one has ever been able to pull up." The pope smiled slightly. as if
It is nostalgia and ridicule. Maybe he was too immersed in his own memories earlier, maybe he really regarded the new cardinal in front of him as an ally who can fully cooperate, his words are absolutely impossible for others to hear, "But unfortunately, this The strong man who thought fate had stepped on his feet died in the end. He didn't even fall on the road he thought he had conquered fate."
"Don't look at any fate, and don't take any prophecy too seriously. Look at your feet. Needless to say, if you walk far, at least you won't fall to pieces. This is the lesson I learned from him The predictions of the sages are usually ambiguous and vague. The result of forcing to analyze is just projecting one's own wishful thinking."
"I don't think it's necessary to care whether the one Archibald mentioned is a single individual or a group, and it doesn't matter what kind of power is gathered, as long as you know that the central land must not just become the orcs and start changing the world. That’s where it’s at.” The pope stood up from his chair, his eyes lit up.
Maybe that's a good point. Analyzing the words of the sages is actually just projecting themselves. This sentence is very suitable for many people. The Marquis made a silent smile in his heart, but he didn't show it. He just said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Lord Lancelot and the Templar Knights have already set off. As long as their side can go smoothly, then Oufu won't last for two or three years."
"Well, it's really thanks to you this time. Inham, if Oufu was really wiped out, it wasn't by me, but by you." His Majesty the Pope looked at the Marquis for the first time. With appreciation and a little gratitude.
Two days later, another letter sent by Dragonfly from Celeste appeared on the table of the Lord of Cedros. The content of the letter is that all seven temple knights, including Lancelot, disappeared from Glory Castle.
There are many griffins in the castle, and there is no news of any temple knights leaving the city. It seems to be deduced that the seven of them left Celeste with teleportation scrolls.
This letter made Sedros very troubled. It's not that each of these secret letters from Celeste cost hundreds of gold coins, but that he really couldn't figure out where the seven temple knights would go.
Including Lancelot. These seven temple knights are all top experts, which represent the highest combat effectiveness of the church. Being able to use these seven people to carry out the task silently is indeed very nerve-wracking and necessary to think about it. The number of teleportation magic circles on the mainland is also countless. Using the method of elimination can also eliminate the places where the temple knights can go. But it seems impossible for them to go to the most valuable places.
Diya Valley? Regardless of whether they have so many Diyagu teleportation scrolls, even if there are quite a few of the Twelve Temples, it is no different from courting death if they dare to break in there directly. The enchantment of the Dark Star is not as gentle as that of the Sunwell.
And all necromancers will definitely return to Diya Valley in the shortest possible time, possibly including Sandro and Agrinel who has been hiding for many years.
Go to the Forest of Whispers and **** the leaves of the World Tree? This already seems the most likely. It was Sedros who still wanted them to go. The enchantment of Sunwell and Ancient War Tree's full-force enchantment can even be stronger than the Dark Star under flexible use. Although there were no necromancers there, there were tens of thousands of elves. As long as Gru went to cooperate with the elves, the seven temple knights would have no chance to return to Celeste.
The Tower of Fangs snatched a large number of scrolls? There are thousands of magicians there. Einfast? impossible. There are two or three others that seem to be of no value at all.. . . . . Could it be to go. . . . But what to do there? Still looking for death? The owner of Oufu thought about it, but felt that his head was getting more and more painful.
This underground hall is not so much a hall as it is a square. Although it is inside the hall, it is filled with endless darkness that does not see the top. It means this is not a square. Although there are a large number of fungi supplying oxygen, there is generally no habit of burning torches in the dungeon. The entire hall is illuminated by the fluorescent gemstones on the surrounding walls. Perhaps because it is a product of the dungeon, the fluorescent gemstones and light seem to have inherited the dungeon. The characteristics of it are dim and ambiguous, but they can be vaguely extended to a long distance.
In the middle of the hall is a huge stone table in proportion to the hall, surrounded by giant stone chairs, but the guests sitting on the strange stone are now smaller in stature, and they are exuding The faint radiance and temperament of the man are also not in harmony with this dark and gloomy underground world. That is the unique holy fluorescence of white magic.
There is a bit of sulfur and rancid smell in the air, which is the unique air of the underground city. Unexpectedly, the smell of sulfur and rancid smell in Lancelot's nose always seems to turn into a **** smell when it reaches his mind, which makes him always feel hallucinations before his eyes, as if there are countless flesh and blood Flying in front of him, splashing on his body. Lancelot subconsciously looked at the standing tauren warriors. He concluded that these were the elite among the tauren, but they were not in his eyes. The most effective tactic can kill these tauren within three breaths... His hand touched the hilt of the sword nervously...
Although it has been ten years, the impression of the killing time in Nigan that lasted for several months will never be erased in his mind. As soon as he saw these monsters and breathed the air at this moment, even if there was no killing intent in his mind, the desire to kill would come out unknowingly.
He took a long breath, and Lancelot stabilized his emotions. He reminded himself that this time was not the same as it was ten years ago. Today, his identity here is no longer an enemy, but an ally.
A strange ally. Ten years ago, when he was nailed into Negan with the Twelve Temple Knights, he cut at least half of Negan's population. The Harpy was almost uprooted. The two were able to leave Negan with him, and both lost. But ten years later, he can sit in the hall of the tauren to receive the grandest welcome ~IndoMTL.com~ It's unbelievable, from a knight's point of view, but Lancelot also understands that he will come back here What is important is not the power of knights, but the power of politics. So he is not an enemy, but an ally.
However, these seven people are not suitable for politics, and everyone's expression is as cold as frost. The battle between humans and Negan can be traced back to prehistory, and the extermination of these heretical creatures has never stopped after the establishment of the church. As Celeste's elite fighters, each of them has at least a hundred of Negan's lives in their hands. , and their students and friends were killed in the battle with Negan.
The servants of the cavemen brought pots of meat and various underground fungi and other food unique to the underground. Their living habits are similar to those of the orcs on the wild highlands.
In front of the conference table, stood a huge figure, the whole body was covered in a dark priest robe with many strange things hung on it, and the horns on the head were engraved with dense dark totems. If it weren't for the slight undulation of the huge chest, in the dim light, this burly figure would make people think it was a statue.
Although it was a little shorter than the average tauren, the high priest Tima still looked like a hill in front of Lancelot.
